- (Reviewing note) Try to avoid the use of they. Braha'tok enthusiast (Hello there) 12:17, October 6, 2020 (UTC)
- I have no idea what you mean. They isn't used a single time in the article. Mr Star Wars Amino Republic (talk) 5:17, October 7, 2020 (UTC)
- Oh. I see you fixed them. Well thank you. I will attempt to avoid using they in the future. Mr Star Wars Amino Republic (talk) 5:18, October 7, 2020 (UTC)
- I'd like to add here that the Manual of Style only forbids the usage of the plural pronoun "they" when referring to individuals of unspecified gender. Using it with a plural noun (such as crystalstorms) is fine. However, the second "they" that was removed (referring to the mining company) should have instead been the singular "it".

- Well, this is supposed to be the most comprehensive it can be, so I think it was a good idea to specify that the Napayuni Mining Consortium is a mining company as Ben did. On the other hand, I believe the first they Ben changed is fine either way. Mr Star Wars Amino Republic (talk) 6:17, October 7, 2020 (UTC)
- Try and use more synonyms, pronouns can sometimes be confused with other things in the sentence or paragraph, or just look bland if used excessively. Braha'tok enthusiast (Hello there) 07:00, October 7, 2020 (UTC)

"...where the storms were known as environmental dangers." Can this be supported by the source?- I checked the source again and I don't know about the environmental part, but the source does indeed call them dangers. I have reworded it to better reflect that. Mr Star Wars Amino Republic (talk) 15:52, October 8, 2020 (UTC)
- Did the source say they were "known as...."? UberSoldat93

"...which once bore witness to a particularly nasty crystalstorm." Please reword this so that it complies with WP:NPOV.- I have reworded it so that it better complies with that. I'm pretty sure what I wrote complies with it, but I'm not 100% sure. Mr Star Wars Amino Republic (talk) 15:52, October 8, 2020 (UTC)
- Is this wording used in the source? "what some called". UberSoldat93

- No. The source uses "The shard was recovered from a nasty crystalstorm." Mr Star Wars Amino Republic (talk) 20:53, October 8, 2020 (UTC)

- Do you think these crystalstorms have anything to do with the salt storms in Star Wars: The Last Jedi – The Storms of Crait 1? Braha'tok enthusiast (Hello there) 12:17, October 6, 2020 (UTC)
- Perhaps they are but no source currently says that the two are linked. Mr Star Wars Amino Republic (talk) 5:16, October 7, 2020 (UTC)
- Understood. Braha'tok enthusiast (Hello there) 07:00, October 7, 2020 (UTC)
